The Effective Implementation Cohort (EIC) is a project designed to help school districts implement an instructional system that supports using a high-quality middle school math curriculum.  The EIC will:

Increase districts’ capacity to implement a high-quality middle-grade math curriculum to accelerate learning for students experiencing poverty, Black, Latino/a, and/or English Learner (EL)-Designated students.

Learn and share with others outside of the project what districts need to have in place for effective implementation, what aspects of implementation at the district and school level most benefit priority students, and the work involved in making site-wide implementation successful.

The EIC will study questions that focus on the conditions that support the effective implementation of curricula. The specific learning questions fall under the following categories:
